New England
Patriots' home turf
New England is the northeastern region of the United States comprising six states: Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.
The area is known for its colonial history, fall foliage, and coastal character.
We're spending Thanksgiving in New England.
A New Englander is someone from the region.
